Abstract
Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have been effectively wetted and dispersed in saturated sodium hydroxide (NaOH) alcohol–water solutions with little surface damage or shortening of the tubes; the treated material was dissolvable as individual tubes in many common organic solvents.Keywords
